Hey,

Chartered Accountant or CA is an amazing career option if you can deal with finance and tax related matters.Big companies hire qualified CAs who can guide them to success and in return give them salaries. But being a CA requires lot of patience and dedication.So be sure of your calling.

You need to keep in mind that not every college provides Chartered Accountancy course.First off you neef to get yourself registered with ICAI that is Institute of Chartered Accountancy education in India.

Exams and courses required to become a CA are:

CPT-Common Proficiency Test

IPCC-Integrated Professional Competence Course

FC-Final course

Candidates can appear for CPT after 12th after clearing which they become member of ICAI.

After that,you need to clear IPCC and then three years of articleship under a qualified  CA.

If you are graduated then you can directly apply for IPCC.

During the last six months of your three year articleship,you can appear for FC.

After clearing FC,you will become a Chartered Accountant.

Hope this helps

Hello Aspirant,

Thanks for contacting Careers360.

Chartered accountant designation is worldwide, and it refers to professional accountants who are qualified to take on a number of specific activities within the spectrum of accountancy. Such tasks include auditing financial statements, filing of corporate tax returns and financial advising. While the name is seen around the globe, in the United States, the equivalent position is known as a certified public accountant, or CPA.

There are four areas in which these accountancy professionals serve. They are taxation, financial accounting and reporting, applied finance and management accounting. The specialization an accountant chooses determines under which umbrella he or she works. Chartered accountants can wear a number of hats. It’s possible that they may oversee a corporation or business’s entire accountancy needs. They may have a more narrow function such as being in charge of just one aspect of a business like auditing or taxes. Many of these highly skilled workers go out on their own as freelancers or consultants for hire.
